SocIabIe Maud s.


The oueen of the turf is fond of caresses.
A visiting party stood in front OF the box
the other afternoon, and she walked straight
to the open door and rested her nose on the
shoulder of one of the young ladies. Arms
were wound around her neck and a soft
cheek laid against her head, and she was as
tender and considerate as big and rough
man in the presence of the girl he loves.
Maud S. has had great deal of petting, but
petting has not spoiled her. She is wonder
fully gentle under the caressing hand of wo-
man. The queen never looked better at
this season of the year. She stands squarely
on her feet and the legs are hard, smooth and
strong. The young lady who had put her
arms around the neck of the chestnut mare
asked Mr.. Bonner for one of her shoes to
hang up over her boudoir door. She thought
it would bring her luck. The owner replied
that he was not in the habit of giving tne
shoes of Maud S. away; it is the practlce 70
keep them, SO that the points where the wear
is greatest NAV be studied and thus act as a
guide to shoeing; but he was oispuseo ~

made to appear that the so-called Trust is an
illegal and corrupt association, which, though
never incorporated, has long exercised the
functions and franchises of corporation;
that this nondescript concern is a gigantic
monopoly, operated against the public inter-
est; that, by gaining control of nearly every
cotton-seed oil rnill in the South, it has been
able to depreciate the value of the seed prod
uct So to So per ton, and finally that it has
opened in Louisiana 81 ,O00, 900 of fictitious
stock, founded upou the enormous profits al
ready realized and the hope and expectation
of their continuance. For all of these ap-
parently sufficient reasons the Attorney
General asks that the "Trust' be suppressed
and destroyed and that receiver be appoint
ed to administer its affairs to close.
The colered race will score at least one at
the national drill and encampment in Wash
ington. But two or three southern white
military companies have refused to join in
the affair, and they are not getting warmly
prsised for their action. Governor Fitz Hugh
Lee said the other day that he could not un-
derstand why anybody should object to the
presence of the colored soldiers. March 4th,
1885, at the inauguration parade, seeing soms
colored companies from other States wander
ing about, looking for position in line, he
made place for them in his own command.

Richmond to Newport News to quell riot.

Lee, "and discharged the duties assigned

AN ENCOURaCTNc REVOT.T-

AN ENCOURAGING REVOLT.
The revolt against the tyranny of the lead
ers of District Assembly 40 in New York is
spreading. Six thousand workers in leather
have decided that they can't endure being
bossed by Quinn and his gang, and now the
tin and sheet-iron workers are disguised.
Some time ago, it will be remembered, the
leaders Of 49 thought they would like a hall
and they decided to make everybody under
their jurisdiction help pay for it. Accord
ingly they laid an assessment on all the local
assemblies. Out Of this action grew the dis
gust Of the tin and sheet-iron workers, who
refused to pay the assessment. The state
ment made by Matthew Barr, their master
workman, is significant. He asks: When
shall the incubus that presses SO heavily on
the struggling masses of labor be lifteda
When shall workingmen rebel against tyr
amy more CALLING than any they have ever
experienced from employerss Have they been
dominated SO long by the arrogant, ambitious
men who have obtained control of District
Assembly No. 40, and through that of the
order, that they are no longer able to demaD d
their rights! Do they not see more
and more every day a disposition on
the part of General Master Workman Pow
derly, of our general executive board, our
District Master Workman Quinn, our COM
mittee on the state of the order, our Hawley,
Drury, Kunze and all the small fry to ride
rough shod over those who placed them in
powers
Most people who have watched the per-
fornances complained of by Mr.. Barr will
agree with him that it is time for protest.
He says: 'Those men claim the right to levy
any assessment they choose, and woe to those
who refuse to comply. They issue edicts of
suspension, kidnap the members of locals
and transfer them to others, order them to
strike or not to strike, according to their own
pleasure, and antagonize trades unions when
ever they can do so with impunity." And
he adds: If the Knights do not call halt
the iron grip of these tyrants will tighten on
their throats until their bondage becomes
more degrading than that from which they
seek to escape.
This is about as severe an arraignment az
any that has lately been directed against the
Capitalists" 1t is encouraging to see that
the organized workingmen are beginning ta
find out that it won't pay them to put them
selves completely under the control of mer
who are not fit to direct them, and who seen
to have little or no regard for justice anc
right. These men will have to be sent to the
rear before the labor movement makes much
real progress.

While the beagles were being examined
big loutish fellow leaned over the railing
and compared every dog led up with his own
dog Jumbo at home, of course always to
the disadvantage of the candidate. Nobody
paid any attention to him until beagle
approached, in which a woman at his ell
bow had some personal interest.
"That dog can't take no prize" he OBJ
served critically, for the benefit of the
public generally; che don't begin to be as
we'll built as Jumbo"
This was more than feminine nature
could stand and the woman turned upon
him with sudden vehemence.

scorn, 'you'd hire hall and have dog
show of your own. You and Jumbo'd be all
the dogs needed"

A letter written by Hawthorne in 1868 has
come to light, and it contains that which is
queer reading now. After two years of war
fare Hawthorne did not hesitate to send a
message to the rebels that "their best hope
lies in the honor of the peace Democrats Of
the North, whom they have heretofore scorn-
ed, and by amalgamation with whom really
think that the old Union might be restored
and slayary prolonged for another hundred
years, with new bulwarks." He went on to
say that the advantage of accepting his plan,
which was to"effect separation of the Union,
giving US the west bank of the Mississippi" J"
would lie in the fact that ''the people of the
North would fancy that they had got the
victory and never known that they had shed
their blood in vain, and SO would become
peace Democrats to man. In that case, woe
to the. abolitionistsl'
